Guidelines
Images must be recent, preferably taken in 2023 itself.
Images should be supplied at as high a resolution as possible (for printing up to A1 minimum), suitable for printing in media and an exhibition. Make sure that they are clean, i.e., they contain no text, watermarks, symbols, or borders. Images should be squared, preferably 2000×2000 pixels in JPEG file format. Images should be no smaller than 1 MB and no larger than 10 MB.
Each participant can submit up to two images. Evaluation will be based on a single image, not a series of images.
Using processing techniques such as cropping and adjustments to refine exposure or enhance colors, is allowed, as long as it does not involve manipulation such as the addition, removal, or distortion of significant content.
AI- and software-generated images are not allowed at all in the competition. Entries found to have used AI and/or software for image generation will be disqualified.
Each image must be accompanied by the name of contributor, the title of the image, and the story behind the image (a brief description of the image which should incorporate the scientific concept/science behind the image, preferably in the form of a story), in not more than 80 words. These details should be submitted in the respective fields in the Google form.
The last date of submission is October 13, 2023.
